So long, Miggy.

The Giants have designated-for-assignment IF Miguel Tejada and OF Aaron Rowand. They have 10 days to trade the two or release them. The Giants probably figure they can work a couple trades. But either way, you won’t see either guy in a San Francisco Giants uniform again.

At the same time, the Giants are bringing in OF Pat Burrell from the DL, and they are purchasing the contract of 26-year-old first baseman Brett Pill. Pill has 25 homers is hitting .312 for Triple-A Fresno this year and the Giants will see how that translates to the majors.

Burrell is hitting .233 this season with seven homers and 21 RBIs in 80 games. He had a right foot strain that kept him out 43 games.
